Awesome views of Mt Baker over water

Serene, beautiful, restful
Lovely! This house is so homey and full of activities. Wake up and have coffee overlooking the water, take a paddle out on the sound, or swim in the pool with the kiddos-- this home has it all! It's also not too far from town or the park-- it's so perfectly situated. I'm so grateful to Joy who was such an attentive and kind host during our stay. We hope to return in the future! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

On Orcas Island there's none better
This is our new #1 VRBO home away from home! We visit 4-5 places a year renting vacation homes. For us this is the best all-around unit we've ever encountered in several states. Not a grandiose mansion mind you but a nicely equipped, furnished, and tastefully decorated home with all the accessories we could use plus more. It's clearly lived in by the owners when not renting out to lucky ones like us. It's an appealing, well-appointed home with great waterfront access and views on a quiet lane on Orcas Island and close to Eastsound for shopping and Moran State Park for recreation. Swimming pool was just an extra to us but families with kids should love that. We didn't go kayaking but that option is there too. Loved watching the birds and sealife all day long, when we weren't fishing over at the state park. Beds were comfy, and all rooms are are large with modern furnishings. Kitchen is well equipped with agood pots and pans and an eclectic assortment of dishes, plates and flatware such as you'd find at your friend's cabin. Owner also does a nice job of checking in at the start and the end, to make sure all is going ok. If I had to search for a negative, it's only got one bathroom. Fine for a couple or a family with one or two kids. But with the hide-a-beds and sofas a large group might find it challenging to share one bathroom. But hey, its only five minutes to Eastsound and public restrooms.

About the host

Hosted by Liz and Larry Pollock

Host profile image
We, Larry and Liz Pollock, currently live in Bellingham, WA. We purchased our dream place on Orcas Island over 30 years ago after falling in love with each other and with the island. Our cabin home was previously part of the Buckhorn Lodge back in the 1930s, and used as a fishing resort destination.
We love Orcas so much, we even got married at the little chapel in Eastsound and had our reception right at the cabin. Lovely!
The 'cabin' as we lovingly refer to it in our family, has been our place to vacation, relax, and rejuvenate with one another. Our kids, Niki and Drew, now adults, have many fond memories building rafts, playing on the beach in front, swimming in the pool, and sharing their special place with friends.
As educators we also had the added bonus to spend most of our summers on Orcas. But, now, as our kids are grown and one of us (Larry) is retired, we have decided to once again share our little piece of heaven with others, which also allows us to travel to other destinations around this amazing planet.
We welcome you to build your own memories at our Orcas cabin home.

Why they chose this property

The most amazing thing about this property is the easy waterfront access and spectacular views. If you know Orcas Island at all, you come to realize that low-bank waterfront homes are hard to find. Our cabin is waterfront, and has just a few steps down to the beach. There are many things to do on Orcas, but we find just being at the cabin is wonderful. We see otters, seals, porpoises, eagles and waterfowl, and deer, literally every day.
We also have an old pool in our backyard, which is usually available during the summer and is solar heated.
Renters will also have use of our 3 kayaks and 1 canoe. Renters can also use our dinghy if you own a boat.
Just minutes away from Eastsound (the main town on Orcas), it is easy to check out the local stores, grab some good food and buy your own groceries.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is truly a unique spot. Low bank waterfront is rare on Orcas and we are just steps to the beach. Our view is spectacular. On a clear day Mt. Baker is amazing! There is a seasonal solar-heated pool in the fenced in backyard. One of a kind experience for all!
